I sort of heard something on the news last night as I was passing the TV that some kid blamed Manhunt for his actions. (Dont know if he was from UK or if he actually killed someone if someone else heard this maybe they could explain more)
It annoys me when people blame video games for someones actions.
If you look at how many people actually play video games it will no doubt be a tiny minority of gamers who have done bad stuff and you can guarantee they would commit a crime whether or not they had just played GTA or Manhunt. There obviously not right in the head from the beginning.
This is coming from somone whos parents let him watch horror films from as young as 10, (Friday 13th, Nightmare on Elm st - that period) and while some of you might think this was too young, my parents knew at the time I knew it wasnt real and that I was sensible enough to know not to go out and do these things I saw in films.
The only thing I took a bit literal was after I watched Ghost, I pretended I could walk through doors and walls
(so my sister tells me anyways)
